Many believe that Mount Ararat in Turkey hold the remains of Noah's Ark.

Didn't anyone take a compass and a map? GPS?
I’ve pheasant hunted in Turkey while on military leave in 1990.
If you think anybody can’t get to the reported site of “Noah’s Ark”, you’re displaying your own naïveté.
Noah’s Ark.
If it was there, we’d have PROOF by now.
You make a great point. There are people living in trailers and storing their clothes in cinder blocked cars that still have a GPS unit sitting on top of their tackle box.
The Arc contained one pair of every animal. Did it also include one pair of every human racial type or did the races evolve after the flood?
Well, the muslims believe in Noah’s ark also, so I think their is some other reason if they are preventing people from trekking up there and trying to dig up something underneath the ice sheet.
Don’t forget to mention the incest that would be involved.
I don’t think so. Noah’s two sons and their wives were along for the ride also.
Do the math. Sooner or later the generations would have to mingle and multiply.
And I can't begin to tell you what happens with mixed blood types. And if they were all the same blood type, why are there now so many variations?
Hmmm, good points you brought up. Now I’ll have to do some homework on the subject. There goes my day of rest! :P
Genesis 7:2 - You shall take with you of every clean animal by sevens, a male and his female; and of the anilmals that are not clean two, a male and his female.
A number of “explorers” who have attempted to climb Mt Arrarat have been turned away by the government, and forbidden to enter that area. Not sure where you have been, but these are reputable men (John Morris, Bob Cornuke, etc)
3 - sons. Shem, Ham and Japheth - Genesis 7:13 and others.
Hey, quit making me look bad! ;)
I remembered Ham and Shem, forgot about Japheth. I think it’s time for a little brush up on my bible. Thanks!
Please explain how this answers the question about the various human races being on the Arc or not. Is this saying that non-Jewish races were included but they are not clean?
Again, we’re talking about “Noah’s Ark”.
Not the Blue-Crested Eastern Snow Warbler.
If it was there, we’d know about it by now.
You couldn’t POSSIBLY keep people away.
Not at all. I wasn’t even focused on the racial aspect of your question, just clarifying a miss conception many have that only 2 of each animal was taken onto the ark. jews were not even identified at this time. Abram aka Abraham was the first “Hebrew”. the term “Jew”, from what I understand can from Judah - one of the sons of Israel - likely from Judea which was what the southern kingdom was called fater the civil war. Jew became a collective term for all Israelites - most of which lived in Jedean are after the Assyrians swept away most of the northern kingdom around 650 BC. BTW there are no lost tribes - all twelve tribes were and are represented in the Judean area since many from the northern tribes migrated to the south during the apostacy started by Jeroboem (spelling).
lol - no problemo.
Two of each creature, male and female, were taken into the ark, except for “clean” animals, of which seven were taken, and used in sacrifices after the flood.
ding ding ding. I believe you are correct.
“ding ding ding. I believe you are correct.”
Thank you. You are kind.
